Notes

'Moon Orbit' daffodil (Narcissus 'Moon Orbit') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The fragrant flowers have greenish yellow petals around a brighter, frilled cup, and bees and butterflies visit them. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Warnaar & Co. bred it.

Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Blue fescue, and Sarah Bernhardt peony.
